Loved top 2 and top 3 looks to be a good improvement. Still all about cheesy combos but the extra card allows more answers and more combos. Great brawl.

That's a much bigger hit to its consistency than 5-10%. Yogg kills itself almost every time.
You can't really "nerf" Yogg without a fundamental redesign. If you had to redesign the card, I think something like "Add up to 5 spells cast this game into your hand" would be better.
Yeah, I mentioned a few days ago that blaming Shaman strength on one card is not the right angle. They just received too many good cards over the last 3 expansions. No Doomhammer and no Tuskar and they are still strong.
I think the rng generator in the game is broken. 5 brawl games in a row where I drew 8:4:2. Unless it is working as intended?
No, it would make it so players have to think about when to use yogg instead of spam spells and YOLO.

Sorc Apprentice, Arcane Intellect, Forgotten Torch. GG.
Also if you Take Prince you get 30 legendary cards in your deck.

Stole the idea from upthread and got my Brawl pack with Innervate-Barnes-Y'Shaarj. My opponent was Mana Wyrm / Mirror Image / Arcane Intellect.
His board of 0/2s and 3/3s did nothing to my board of 3/4s and 10/10s. He conceded turn 4.
Last two times Yogg stole games from me (legit stole games I had 100% won), Yogg didn't die. I don't know the actual numbers, but Yogg doesn't always immediately die. Sometimes he lives / sometimes he dies after he casts a bunch of spells / sometimes he Fireballs himself the instant you play him.
Yogg should be more like Servant of Yogg-Saron--a fun card for Timmies that no Spike would ever dream of playing. I feel like that's what Blizz thought would happen when they created that card.
I thought my Yogg redesign was decent, maybe it should be "At the start of the game, replace 5 cards in your deck with random spells that cost zero."

1. Get 3 Sorcs out
2. Cast free spells to win
Servant of Yogg Saron is trash design. It isn't even a Timmy card. Making Yogg himself more like Servant is just propagating trash design. The fact that Yogg has greater consistency and a bell curve for expected results makes it the better card.
I think the Barnes/Y'Sharrj/Innervate deck is close to a toss up against the Coldlight/Naturalize/Innervate one depending on who gets more copies of the ones they need.
There's no problem with there being bad cards in the game. Some cards are bad. Yogg, I think, was expected to be bad by both the designers and the community.
Yogg should be a bad card. The fact that it's a good card is killing this game. I used to play two hours a day. I've probably only played 7 ranked games this entire week.

Apparently Malcheezar adds 50 legendaries to your deck.
That's pretty neat.
That's pretty neat.
This brawl is going to nearly impossible to win a game on my F2P accounts. My asia account in particular is pretty light on cards.
any account on F2P will deeply suffer from a brawl which needs player made decks.
I just made a pretty nice brawl with Machezaar's imp + Silverware Golem + Soulfire

Frostbolt, Arcane Intelect, Sorc's Apprentice are all basics.
I'll try it, thanks for the tip!
Mana Wyrm, Frostbolt and AI isn't much tougher to get, since MW is common.
thx I went Innervate-Barnes-Ragnaros. Such fun
wow... that's... damn! gonna try that.. (now if barnes pull another barnes)
ok this brawl is fun for these little weird combinations
good luck to those fatigue druids I've been running into

Nice got my 2nd prep, that moves Thalnos up the list to craft quite a bit.

Coldlight, Innervate, Naturalize is some bullshit but it's damn fun.
yeah that shit killed me on turn 5 one time and I went "well now I know how I'm finishing this brawl quest"

Burned through a mage's whole deck by turn 3 lol. They conceded.

Imp/soul fore/golem is slaying shit left and right. I have yet to lose a game even when my draw nd diacars rng is suboptimal.
I've been slaying most decks except some rng pulls from barnes or rng ragnaros' throws

I feel like tournaments are best mid week. This batstone has been a pretty good watch so far.

i have two friend requests from an aggro hunter who laid out his entire deck on turn 7 with 1 card left in hand that was clearly COTW. i had a spell totem down, used malestrom portal, won.
i must be popular.

I accepted a friend frequest when I needed a 2+ damage spell to clear his taunt totem and win. Drew maelstrom portal ran it out and got the 1/1 charging boar.
I was so happy to be able to gloat but he only flamed me then removed me instantly.
dat order!
